User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
Bright Pattern, Inc.
Bright Pattern has been fantastic in allowing us to automate voice and chat contacts, and we're currently building out scenarios that will allow us to automate even more. It's super simple to collect data from customers, and using some API calls provides the answers they're looking for without a human needing to get involved. There is less functionality currently for emails. Emails can be routed to queues based on keywords, and auto-replies can be sent, but it's pretty basic functionality. We'd love to see some of the enhanced capabilities offered in voice and chat scenarios for email.

My impression is that Genesys Cloud CX is really well suited for big contact centers. Obviously it is a wonderful tool and actually suitable for all contact centers ranging from 1 employee to hundreds of thousands, however it's cost might be a little bit on the high side for small companies that are not 100% prepared to have this great solution and might prefer simpler solutions

Cons
Bright Pattern, Inc.
  • That they had a text and voice analysis module Que tuvieran un modulo de analisis de texto y voz
  • Customized agent interface with company logos. Interfaz de agente personalizada con logos de la empresa
  • The softphone, when entering multiple interactions, causes the advisors to become confused when they have several. It should be less complex and more adaptable.
  • El softphone al momento de ingresar varias interacciones, los asesores se pierden cuando tienen varios. que sea menos complejo y mas adaptable

  • Updates can come quickly and release notes can be missed
  • We use a large number of queues. It's hard to keep track as reporting seems to be limited to around 500 at a time
  • Dashboards aren't as adaptable as they could be

The upcoming upgrades working with Genesys Cloud and Salesforce are very exciting. Even though we don't use Genesys Cloud to the fullest extent it can be used (we just migrated a year ago), when these upgrades roll out, I am very excited to see what it can do to for our agents. I think they are going to be very impressed

Usability
Bright Pattern, Inc.
It's pretty simple for agents to pick up quickly, it takes a bit longer for supervisors to get familiar with. QA tools are pretty barebones but functional enough. It can be as simple or complex as you need it to be, if you spend some time configuring the settings or working with Bright Pattern's support team to build out what you need.

Everything is very good. It is very useful, friendly to users and it makes our work easier than what we expected. I think that I don't need any help from someone on how to use Genesys coz basically they will directly feed it to you without any hassle on using it.

Reliability and Availability
Bright Pattern, Inc.
It is always on. The only outage to date that I have experienced was with an upstream telco provider a few years ago. The inbound leg telco was hit by a DDOS attack which led to delays in routing calls to the platform. This was not the fault of the Bright Pattern platform but the telco provider. We have had a few minor carrier issues with call quality, or a handful of brief drops, but Bright Pattern is quick to identify these and change carriers when it starts to happen.

The platform is highly reliable, with minimal downtime or outages, and is generally available when needed. Over the course of using it, unplanned outages or application errors have been rare, and any issues that did arise were quickly resolved. Genesys provides robust support and maintenance, ensuring the system remains operational during critical business hours. However, like any cloud-based platform, there have been occasional disruptions, though these were infrequent and quickly addressed. Overall, its availability has been excellent, supporting smooth daily operations.

Performance
Bright Pattern, Inc.
All pages load when expected, and reports render either in the web browser or as a download. I never really have issues with accessing the admin or agent desktop sites. It just works.

Genesys
Overall, the platform performs well, with pages loading quickly and reports typically completing in a reasonable time, even with complex data. The interface is responsive, and most day-to-day tasks are executed efficiently. However, in some instances, especially during peak usage times or when running very detailed, large-scale reports, there can be slight delays. While these are rare, they occasionally affect workflow. Additionally, the platform generally integrates smoothly with other systems, though some integrations can slow down slightly, particularly when pulling large datasets or interacting with older, legacy systems. Nonetheless, the performance is strong and reliable for most use cases.

In-Person Training
Bright Pattern, Inc.
In-person and virtual training was great, but Bright Pattern could use some online training videos similar to other platforms. I would welcome online training videos to keep the steady flow of new agents up to date. Admin training is one of the largest areas that need video. The static documentation is great. It is pretty easy to follow and configure your contact center as you progress through each step. The documentation is available online on an easy to use knowledgebase or wiki style site. You do not need a user account to access the help docs, meaning that users at any level can freely access the materials to learn about the platform.

Genesys team that provide trainings are friendly and professional. They helped us to understand well the product and the functionalities. The training was detailed with use cases. At the end, we got a task to develop that ended with success and we got some Genesys rewards. It was amazing experience

Online Training
Bright Pattern, Inc.
Online training is documentation based only. It is thorough and step by step, but no videos. It would also be helpful to have more information within the help docs on custom reporting. I find that many of the Bright Pattern specific configurations for the Jasper Reporting Server have to be "stumbled" across through existing report templates and they are not clearly listed out somewhere. In person training will not generally go into great depth on report customizations.

In general, it gives a description and can help to understand what to do and how. but: Sometimes, it does not keep up with changes in the system (for example, in the GUI changes, additional features and so on). Sometimes, much easier and helpful to read the documentation (https://help.mypurecloud.com/) that gives the "better" explanations and takes less time.

Implementation Rating

As an implementor, I have found the Bright Pattern Contact Center very easy to work with. The platform operates in the manner which I think. Therefore, everything I do seems logical and works exactly as expected. Many solutions are much more difficult to work with and make implementations difficult

We had a complicated implementation because of the requirements around our routing. I recommend that you allow plenty of time for design and testing if you have complicated requirements. We had to push our implementation out several times to make sure it was done properly and still I think some issues were missed, but since fixed

Alternatives Considered

As a contact centre technology vendor we have experience of many different contact centre platforms. We chose Bright Pattern Contact Center because its the best omni-channel contact centre we've ever seen, it's incredibly reliable, its hosted in-country, it has the Microsoft integrations many of our customers want, we can integrate with virtually any CRM or ITSM system and the platform offers a vast feature set.

We previously utilized Genesys Engage. The analytics and reporting in Genesys Engage cannot even compare to what we are seeing in Genesys Cloud CX. Genesys Cloud CX provides a very "hands on" experience for supervisors as well as analytics teams. Call recordings and analytics in Genesys Cloud CX provided a full view of the conversation and allow for a better understanding of the customer journey.

I give Genesys a rating of 10 for scalability because of its ability to adapt seamlessly to growing business needs, whether expanding across multiple departments, locations, or regions. Its cloud-based infrastructure allows for easy scaling without the need for costly hardware upgrades or lengthy implementation times. As our organisation grew, we were able to add new agents, channels, and features without disrupting operations, which significantly enhanced our flexibility. The platform's design supports both small-scale and enterprise-level operations, making it ideal for evolving businesses. Additionally, its capacity to handle increased interaction volumes without compromising performance ensures that customer service quality remains high, even during peak times. This flexibility and ease of scaling, combined with real-time analytics and automation capabilities, make it highly effective for growing organisations.

Professional services are definitely much more experienced than the support teams, and the price for their services is very fair. I wish that the support team could help answer simple questions about work that the PSS team does, however, so that we do not have to use our SOW for simple Q&A emails.

Return on Investment

  • Very quick to implement so we are able to service more customers with same number of staff

  • Because the platform already has all the information on the customer, and every interaction within it, it already brings us a return on investment because we do not have to deploy other legacy systems. For example, for you to monitor calls or interactions, everything is already on the same platform. It would be an extra cost if you had to have another CRM behind Genesys. In this case, Genesys Cloud CX already embeds all the solutions in one.
